Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: June 2026

Dink Report participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means that when you click a link to a product on this site and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.

How Affiliate Relationships Work Here

We link to products we have reviewed or recommend. The presence of an affiliate link does not influence our rating or review content. A paddle that earns a 3.5/5 in our review will still show that rating even if the affiliate commission is higher than for a paddle we rated 4.8/5.

Our ratings are assigned before any affiliate relationship is established. We do not accept payment to improve scores or provide positive coverage.

Which Programs We Participate In

We currently participate in affiliate programs from various pickleball paddle manufacturers and retailers. We will note when a product was provided to us for review at no cost.

Your Support

Affiliate commissions help fund the cost of purchasing paddles for testing and running this website. I appreciate it when you use my links — it lets me keep reviewing honestly without accepting advertising money that would compromise my independence.
